Thisis a spacefiller copy of SG 13, the 1d woodblock in vermilion. It has two large margins, with two portions of the next stamp showing in the lower margin, but cut into on the right side. Both the lower two corners have diagonal creases, but these are not carried across onto the backing piece, so I am not convinced that the stamp belongs to the piece. It may be a "marriage", intended to disguise the creases or a thin. But still a decent spacefiller copy wi...th good bright colour and the figure of Hope largely free of the postmark.
